As for determining which animals have been strangled and not drained of their blood, we must understand that the focus was on the quantity of blood remaining in the meat of the animal. It was not the fact that the animal was strangled that kept it from being eaten, but the fact that it was never drained of its blood.
The Eocene constitutes the middle part of the Paleogene period (65-23 million years ago), preceded by the Paleocene and succeeded by the Oligocene epoch (34-23 million years ago); all of these periods and epochs were part of the Cenozoic Era (65 million years ago to the present).
The Paleolithic period (2.6 million to 10,000 years ago) refers to the âold stone ageâ when multiple species of humans were mainly nomadic hunters using primitive tools. The Neolithic or ânew stone ageâ begins around 4500B.C. and lasts to 2000 B.C.
